U2 Postponed so it was Eden Park and the Blues


With U2 postponing their gigs in New Zealand, well the entire down under leg of their tour, Saturday night was free to enjoy a night at Eden Park and the Super 14's. The Blues were playing the ACT Brumbies - featuring none other than George Gregan. We had prime seats to watch him get a kicking!!!!

We had a great view of the rugby

Now Super 14's games seem to be a bit different to other rugby games i have been to. The emphasis is on entertainment - and with no relegation to worry about iot shoudl make for a good running game. So after the fireworks and the dancing it was down to business.

The Blues ran out winners 26 - 15. Gregan got subbed halfway through the second half and didn't get panned as hoped - ah well, always next time. Then it was off to the pub for a re-tox following St Paddys day the night before.

Thankfully I think their chances are a long way less than good.
